I think with the infinite new properties of thought will arise. It is similar to the Hilbert's hotel with infinite space and time an computer will be able to simulate itself, not matters how big it is. I think that understand things is similar on some sense to simulate things. On the sense that the simulation of an computer is not the same as a computer, because per example to simulate an transistor you will need more than a single transistor.

But anyway you guys not think it is strange that some things that is done in nature can be done into a computer simulation? Per example as you can navigate the real world you can navigate a 3D scene?
